AVOID THE WATER.

To those who sensibly take advantage
of their opportunities and seek the
lakes these warm days and evenings of
early summer, the temptation to coun-
teract the oppressive heat by cooling
dip in the refreshing water is almost
irresisti bic.
Nothing could easily be more danger.
Gus than giving way to such temptation
1t is entirely too early for open air bath
ing, as many imprudent youths have
doubtless already discovered to their
cost. The air is warm, but it is treach-
erous warmth, ever ready under favor
able conditions, such as would be
induced through sudden cooling by
premature bathing, to-inculcate disease.
There is no more pleasant or profitable
amusement than swimming. as every
small boy and good many larger ones
will swear, but it should be done at the
proper season, and that is not yet ar
rived.
The advice which the famous old lady
in the song gave her ambitious daughter,
Don't go near the water" might well
be repeated at this time, OF, it might be
added, if you do be sure that it is in a
boat.

..Let 'Er Go. Gallagher,

''The Gallagher who gave rise to this
phrase was Thomas j. Gallagher, the
sporting editor of the obe-Democrat,
of st. Louis. He is well known
all over the West. He used
to be a first-class sprinter, and he is a
fine billiard player. Tom Gallagher
used to play good many billiard
matches in Mussey's old rooms in ST..
Louis. When he was practicing a
crowd would always be on hand. They
all knew him, and liked him. Tom has
a deliberate way of walking around the
from various points, and then nodding
with his cue refectively before he
shoots, not nervous like, but it's his
way. So when the crowd got tired
waiting some one would call out, as
Tom sawed with his cue, 'Oh, let her
go, Gallagher!' Finally it got to be a

CHICAGo's COMPLAINT.

Chicago papers complain that hun
dreds of houses in that city are now
vacant and awaiting tenants, and are
speculating as to the cause of such a
condition of things. The reason is not
only very evident to the unprecedented
observer, but together with the fact
affords very interesting contrast to the
situation in st. Paul.
In the first pidce Chicago property
owners, having been educated up to re-
ceiving large returns for money in
vested in dwelling houses during the
time the city was growing with phenom-
email rapidity and the demand exceeded
the supply, are unable now to persuade
themselves to accept less. People
are ilEs driven into the suburbs,

A pious old chap named Duchesnes
Is the subject of this little yeSnes;
He ne'er could bear
To audibly swear,
But once in while whispered ''desnesr'
hungry young man, ycleped Bethune,
Was preparing his porridge to sweethune,
When his favorite pup
Slyly gobbled it up,
And scampered away when t was ethune.
There was once young lady named Glamis
Who possessed quite remarkable chamis;
No man could resist her,
And, once he had kissed her
He tainted away in her amis.
A popular preacher, one Knollys,
In delivering lecture on solivs,
Said. IF good you'll be saved,
But if bad you've behaved
You'll be surely hauled over the collys.''

STRAY SUNBEAMS.

Are we reading people? And if so,
what class of literature is most pre-
ferred? These are interesting questions
and it is pity that statistics are not
available to furnish satisfactory an
swers to them. 1t is known that the
American people are nation of news
paper readers. That is demonstrated by
the sale of daily newspapers, and in
this respect we are in advance of the
European nations.
x*
But what we want to get at is, are we
nation of book readers, and what sort
of books do we read? Book publishing
houses might furnish statistics that
would give some information on this
subject. The next available source of
information is found in the records of
the public libraries. And yet if the
public library test was the standard of
the literary taste of st. Pauls popula-
ton the showing would Se bad one
for us.
The number of bound volumes now in
the public library of the city of st. Paul
is 1895, an increase of 1,741 over the
number reported last year. 1t is graft
flying to know that the library is grow
ing, yet it is shamefuily small for city
of the population of st. Paul.
~
One of the most Interesting features
of the report recently made by the
librarian is that which relates to the
book borrowers. The whole number of
persons now holding cards which en-
title them to draw books is 1892, or
about in 30 Of the city's population.
During the last year the library was
open for the delivery Of books 3OS days.
and the number of books taken out for
home use was $3.50, for use in the
rooms 6,19S, making an aggregate circu-
latiOn of 61 ,S47 volumes, daily average
of about 200 volumes. The largest aver
age daily issue by months was in Feb
ruary and March.
~
But it is in the classification of the
circulation which speaks worst for the
literary taste OF st. Paul's book readers.
Over rs per cent. of the books borrowed
during the year were prose fiction and
Juvenile publications. Less than 10 per
cent. were histories and biographies,
while arts and sciences show per cent,
and poetry and drama less than Q per
cent. If our public library record is any
test of the national literary taste, then
we are indeed nation of novel readers.

Mr.. Grady was undoubtedly sincere in his
appeal for full peace and harmony at the

pearapce of his picture in Hdtpsr's Weekly
we see no reason why hOstilties should not

sents an aged person OF vicious tendencies,
suffering with neuralgia in the Jaw. The
face has the swarthy cast OF man who has
been blown up out OF well, and carries an
undercurrent that suggests acute cholera
